While we haven’t seen any new official gameplay or details for Battlefield 2042 released this gamescom, there’s still new info surfacing thanks to dataminers. This time, we see some of the Battlefield 2042 ammo types players can use for their weapons, a new vehicle we’ve yet to see in the trailers, and more.
Once again, this is brought to us by reliable Battlefield dataminer temporyal, who dug up some interesting new info regarding DICE’s upcoming shooter.
Here are some types of ammunition for primary & secondary weapons in #Battlefield 2042.
Looks like we'll be getting interesting options like a KRISS Vector with 🔉 subsonic ammo or M44 with 🧨 explosive rounds. Of course there will be a certain amount of balancing restrictions. pic.twitter.com/npLbwuAIB1

Very interesting to see some of the controversial ammo types coming back. That said, we don’t know if all these will be in the game at launch or in its lifecycle, given it is datamined info after all, and nothing has been confirmed.
Another thing new datamined is the reference to the Panhard Crab vehicle.
New vehicle reference in #Battlefield 2042:
🦀 Panhard CRAB
As far as I know, this 4×4 armoured combat vehicle can't be spotted in trailers or screenshots. Atm there is no model or customization info available. The beta might provide additional details on its potential loadout. pic.twitter.com/KssNWqMXc7

Finally, a bunch of game modes that can be played on the Orbital map has surfaced too!
Below you can find a list of supported game modes in #Battlefield 2042 based on the Orbital playtest map.
The Portal modbuilder entries allow you to create various "Team1 vs Team2" or "Free-for-all" setups and they might cover different map sizes or playable areas (speculation). pic.twitter.com/qQUafZHqQo

Again, just as a disclaimer, nothing here has been confirmed by DICE nor EA, so don’t be upset if we don’t see all the ammo types listed. These could be leftover code that wasn’t meant to be seen by regular joes like us.
